Here is Jericho's statement:

“David Z was a good friend of mine and I was mentally and emotionally shattered after paying tribute to him and essentially saying goodbye to him Friday night. I was not in a good state of mind at that time and instead of ignoring a pushy fan which is what I would usually do, I snapped. My apologies to all involved and God bless David Z.”
